Renewable energy rent seekers and the wind and sun cult hate nuclear power because it works, 24 x 365, whatever the weather. It doesn’t need batteries and it doesn’t need backup. Wind and solar, on the other hand, will never amount to meaningful power sources - ever. No amount of finessing the facts can change … Continue reading Nuclear Now: Time to Scrap Subsidised Wind & Solar Scam & Back Serious Power Generation

Doomed to Inevitable Failure: Grand Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Built On Subsidies & Bullshit
As wind and solar capacity increases, it becomes increasingly evident they are hopelessly incapable of delivering power as and when we need it. Back in January 2021, Germany shut down 11 coal-fired power plants (with a total capacity of 4.7 GW). That shutdown lasted eight days, with most of the plants up and running by … Continue reading Doomed to Inevitable Failure: Grand Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Built On Subsidies & Bullshit
Snowy 2.NOTHING: Giant Pumped Hydro Scheme Becomes Costly & Pointless Disaster
Along with giant batteries and ‘green’ hydrogen, pumped hydro is touted as the solution to wind and solar power’s hopeless intermittency. Five years ago, Australia’s PM, Malcolm Turnbull pitched his very own mega-pumped hydro project, tagged Snowy 2.0. The numbering was meant to be a nod to computer program upgrades and signal an improvement on … Continue reading Snowy 2.NOTHING: Giant Pumped Hydro Scheme Becomes Costly & Pointless Disaster
Perfect Insanity: Australia’s Renewable Energy ‘Policy’ Guarantees Blackouts & Rocketing Prices
Australia’s energy crisis was perfectly predictable and perfectly avoidable. Just over 20 years ago, sound engineering gave way to delusional ideology, obsessed with the notion that wind and solar would provide all the power we could ever need. The rest, as they say, is history. Over time it’s getting harder to convince youngsters that Australia … Continue reading Perfect Insanity: Australia’s Renewable Energy ‘Policy’ Guarantees Blackouts & Rocketing Prices
Energy Transition Turns High Farce: Power Prices Surge 80% After Coal-Fired Plant Shutdown
Destroying coal-fired power plants is all part of the grand wind and solar ‘transition’ and precisely the point of the subsidies to wind and solar which are designed to allow the unreliables to undercut cheap and reliable coal-fired power, thereby driving coal-fired plants out of business. The inevitable consequences include rocketing power prices and rolling … Continue reading Energy Transition Turns High Farce: Power Prices Surge 80% After Coal-Fired Plant Shutdown
Renewables Reckoning: Closing Australia’s Coal-Fired Power Plants Guarantees Grid Collapse
Thanks to an obsessional reliance on wind and solar, Australia’s power grid has all the structural integrity of a house of cards. Based on the delusion that weather-dependent wind and weather and sunshine-dependent solar can actually replace coal-fired power, Australia’s energy policy is deliberately designed to wipe out coal-fired power plants, once and for all. … Continue reading Renewables Reckoning: Closing Australia’s Coal-Fired Power Plants Guarantees Grid Collapse
Australia’s Total Wind & Solar Push – Nothing Short of Total Insanity
Just as Europe reverses course on its wind and solar-powered energy calamity, in Australia, the lunatics in charge of the asylum are determined to double down and destroy what remains of this country’s once reliable and affordable power supplies. With policies directed at wiping reliable coal-fired power plants off the map and rewarding the unreliables … Continue reading Australia’s Total Wind & Solar Push – Nothing Short of Total Insanity
Reliable Coal-Fired Power Only Antidote to Australia’s Self-Inflicted Wind & Solar Chaos
Blowing up coal-fired power plants comes with a staggering price tag and Australia’s power consumers are paying it, with another round of 20-30% increases in retail power prices only a couple of months away. And that crushing blow sits on top of the routine annual double-digit increases, they’ve been suffering over the last decade. With … Continue reading Reliable Coal-Fired Power Only Antidote to Australia’s Self-Inflicted Wind & Solar Chaos
All Downhill: Australia’s Largest Pumped Hydro Scheme Grinds to Insanely Costly Halt
Loose talk about ‘green’ hydrogen, mega-batteries and pumped hydro is the default response from rent seekers forced to face up to wind and solar’s hopeless intermittency. None of the aforementioned generate a single watt of electricity; all of them chew up mountains of energy and resources in their creation; and all of them consume electricity … Continue reading All Downhill: Australia’s Largest Pumped Hydro Scheme Grinds to Insanely Costly Halt
Real Nowhere ‘Plan’: Why The Grand Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Is Doomed to Failure
Anyone familiar with the weather and sunset, could have told you it would never work; the grand renewable energy transition, that is. The wind and sun cult have been claiming outright victory for years, although the scoreboard doesn’t seem to reflect their exuberant claims. The future for coal-fired power has never looked brighter; China and … Continue reading Real Nowhere ‘Plan’: Why The Grand Wind & Solar ‘Transition’ Is Doomed to Failure
